Could anyone help with serial no. and tailsigns of
Junkers Ju160 in Luftwaffe service, perhaps also

some operational data of individual aircraft?

Any infos about the following Ju160 serial numbers?:
4217 and 4218
4224 to 4238
4240 to 4243
4248 to 4291

Could anyone supply serial numbers of the following
Ju160 registrations:
J-DAAF
WL-URIF or URIP
D-URUZ
D-URUQ
D-UQEK
D-UHOM
D-UNAL
D-URUZ

Thanks for any help,

W.Nr. 4229 D-URIF and W.Nr. 4238 D-UGUV.
All aircraft listed in the inventory of E-Stelle (See) Travemünde at the end of September 1936.

Hi Zorst

In your up-dated lists you have 4292 as D-UNUR but this is a mistake for 4202 D-UNOR.

I have listed 4243 as D-URUQ but this could be a typo for 4223.

Hope this helps

Tom,
that makes sense with D-URUQ as 4243.
I have a second registration for 4223 as D-URUK,
therefore D-URUQ might be 4243.

Military Ju 160s?

I have an original photo depicting a Ju 160 in military livery.
Unfortunately, only the first two letters of the four-letter Stammkennzeichen is visible: SD.
Is this enough to identify which particular airplane was it? There weren't too many Ju 160s impressed in military service...

Denes,
I have just a single Luftwaffe registration for Ju160,
which is TH+HF at DVL Travemuende. As far as I know,
most of the Ju160 of Lufthansa were transfered to
Luftwaffe in 1940 and were used by flying schools
and a few for travelling purposes. However, I don't
find references to them till now.
Best, Horst

Thank you, Tony!
I have D-UFOH as TH+HF (which might be an input mistake),
could you confirm TK+HF?

Tony, I am wondering if your TK+HF, W.Nr.4239, is the same as TH+HF, seen at DVL Travemünde, mentioned by 'hzoe'?

TH+HF is probably correct the TK part probably a typo.

Hi

Tony is correct the Stkz should read as TH+HF.

The Stkz TK+HF is missing and someone seems to have been assumed that this was allocated to a Ju 160. Probably because the range TK+HA/HE is taken up with Ju 52/3m & Ju 87s.
